I just dare any Republican to use the phrase “Family Values” ever again. May that expression finally drown in its own piss.

Vladimir, I didn’t know you read FA.

Just say “oh, I’m sorry, I though you looked Jewish. Merry Christmas.” They won’t know whether to be insulted or glad to be in the comfort of a fellow bigot.

-gate is for your parents’ scandals. This, obviously, should be known as DickieLeaks.

I’ve run into a few people legitimately abusing system, but for more people stuck at the bottom because the system abused them. The most common example is having to choose between keeping and keeping your food stamps appointment. In a f ways, society likes to punish the poor as it helps them. Capitalism depends on

The federal government is the same size today as it was in the 1960s, despite population growth. That suggests a level of efficiency. Plus, something can be inefficient when under-resourced as well as when over.

Your mistake is assuming there is hope. A single mom who slips and breaks her ankle is done. Medical bills equal to her annual income. Can’t work, so you lose your job, no job means you get evicted. Eviction means moving to a worse apartment in a worse neighborhood. Longer commutes to look for work. Now you might even

That is a nice story, but it’s BS. I work in economic development for Appalachia, and the truth is, with just a few exceptions, they don’t want to work. The people who want to work have already gotten out. All that left are the retired, the willfully uneducated, the apathetics and the drug addicts. They might say they

Why would you even want windows on that side of the house? To get a better view of your neighbor’s viyl siding from six feet away?

Gonna be a long five months of snow and ice in a wheel chair.

You’re more right than you think. Clay County, WV neighbors Charleston.

But how are you going to keep the new CiC from tweeting about any mission before it’s halfway to its destination.

I absolutely had to have a minivan ( surprise twins) and thought we’d stretch out budget to buy new so we could have a few years without worrying about unexpected repairs. The 2011 Caravan was a big mistake. In and out of the shop with two different dealers. Our total time with it in the shop has been close to the

Well, since I didn’t bring it up two years ago, though burgoo is acceptable at a race track, I’m pretty sure you have to give fried chicken to Kentucky. Also, not to be poultry-centric, but New York pizza? Um, hello Buffalo wings.

Yes! This. To manipulate Trump, compliment him, but ridicule Pence and Banning. Make them look inept, or even better, disloyal. Trump is an entertainer. He wants to be liked by his audience, wants to appear to be The Decider. He’ll tell his closest friend “you’re fired” if he thinks it will make him look good.

Two competing advisors every level. Priebus on the left, Banning on the right. He’s setting it to be The Apprentice.

When things go wrong, he’ll look to the people he delegated to and say “you’re fired.” It’s going to be a shitshow for two years.

The first time something goes wrong that is exactly what he’ll try to do.

Difficult is an understatement. The GOP base is still shrinking. America is still becoming more diverse and more tolerant every day. Had Trump lost, the GOP might have purged itself of it s worst elements, but they are married to them. Plus, millions of millennials and even the young children who will be whatever
